Hey there,
Thank you for running slabbed-or-not check ;) ‘Vigilance is the price of safety’ (The Dark Knight, 2008).
I am glad to hear that you like the service.
We provide servers with root access and don’t create sudo users on our end because clients may require specific configuration on unmanaged plans. I agree that it might be a little old school xD

Hello,
Can you please elaborate on what 600bps means? Do you mean the port speed? We have 1Gbps uplink on our VPS, that is usually enough for an image/photo website.
Anyway, if you host an image site, bandwidth is also important as well as RAM (if you plan to cache images).
Theoretically speaking, a VPS is a good choice for an image hosting and our tech specs are decent as well.
However, if you have certain requirements, please forward them to support at https://www.ait.com/company/contact-support/
We will review the requirements and suggest a proper option.
Thank you for the question!

I signed up to it 20 minutes ago and have yet to receive a welcome email….this is very poor…I can’t believe they do not have instant provisioning for their VPS…
Their customer control panel is written in ASP…
It feels like joining a dinosaur company, with a lot of bones’ dust….even amber smells better. At this very moment they are probably mining for some coal so that the steam can generate electricity in the power plant.
I have pity for them: I just gave $1 to a hospice, please accept my donation (to buy a cardboard coffin?) and a prayer.
RIP AIT.

Last episode.
Side note: AIT is the acronym for “Advanced Internet Technology”.
24 hours later, while awaiting for the plan activation: since I had cancelled the Paypal recurring payment, AIT cancelled my the trial altogether & refunded my $1, I couldn’t even test their hand-made antiquity! LOL…
In the middle ages you were burnt at the stake, today you just have to let the free market phase you out; we are more civilized after all!

Virtual Private Server (VPS) Hosting FAQ

1. What is a VPS?
"VPS" stands for virtual private server, and effectively means a virtual software instance running within a physical computer server. A virtual private server works like a dedicated physical server but relies on a virtualized software engine often referred to as a "hypervisor" to provide the interface between the physical server and the virtual instance (aka "vps") operating system.

2. Why Do I want a VPS?
By electing to use a "VPS" you are choosing to use a sliver of a physical dedicated server, which generally means lower costs, becuase you are only utilizing a piece of the phsyical capacities of the underlying server. Additionally VPS plans are often portable, providing easy migration from location to location and server to server along with being able to upgrade or downgrade your resources with only a few clicks (rather than having to change out physical server components, etc) as your needs dictate.
